It was our folly... our doom that we took that last job. If only we hadn't inadvertently stolen Lord Valthalak's spirit, which was contained in the amulet; if only there weren't those in our mercenary group that had been so greedy and divided it up amongst themselves. I'd be alive today, maybe tossing back a beer, or tossing one of my kids into the air.

<name>, don't let the avarice of the ignoble in our old mercenary company be your doom as well.

I'm impressed, <class>, but there's no time to lose. I will give you your next task, because you will still need to acquire a few more important components before we can proceed.

Speak to me again when you feel that you are ready for the challenge that lies ahead.
